What to do and see in Mauritius, Mauritius: The Best Things to do Adventurous

November 9, 2021 Sheron Bogner

Mauritius is arguably Africa’s wealthiest destination, a tropical paradise with tons to do. Port Louis, the modern capital of this 38-mile by 29-mile island, is a bustling port with a revitalized waterfront and a busy market. But most visitors gravitate toward resort areas such as Mont Choisy, quiet Trou-aux-Biches and the more bustling Flic en Flac, popular with scuba divers. Rivière Noire is ideal for those looking for great deep-sea fishing.

Aquaventure

Aquaventure is the first company to have introduced Undersea Walk on the East Coast - Belle Mare in 1995. The valuable experience gained during these years has made Aquaventure one of the safest, most reliable, most customer driven and the most environmental friendly organizations on the island. Being the pioneer in the region, Aquaventure has had the leading advantage of selecting the best and most spectacular underwater spots, combining ideal conditions such as: calm sea, clear water, excellent visibility and a rich and colorful marine life. The Undersea Walk Aquaventure Ltd has since 1995 overwhelmed thousands of people including absolute non-swimmers, people who never thought they would have their head under water and lots and lots of children, amongst others. No former experience or training is required. Undersea Walk for many is a feeling of achievement, another first step, a dream come true, a whole lot of excitement and fun. The guided trip under water lasts around 15 - 20 minutes in the beautiful Long Beach lagoon of Belle Mare at 3 - 4 meters depth.
